About Marty Plante

My Background
Hands on from a young age with concrete formwork, flatwork and framing, I always found myself in a leadership position either in a carpenter role or foreman role. I worked with sub-contractors in the mechanical field as a second job, combining that with full time work for General Contractors, and I was able to establish a very broad base of knowledge in systems both in the field, and in project management.
In the early 90’s I took on the role of Operations Manager for a concrete and pumping company where we grew a formwork division from an in house operation to a joint venture company casting wall at a rate of over 7,000 square feet of contact surface per week.
Business History
In 1993, in my first foray into the world of the self-employed, I started a residential and commercial formwork company.
In 2002 I decided to rejoin the ranks of the self-employed and began again in the concrete formwork industry. This time, however, moving into specialized aquatics and water tight construction building a reputation as the go-to company for troubleshooting either physical work, or the complex planning of projects that required itemized tasks for critical path planning. I operated this company until 2015.
Today
Today, I serve as Director of Operations for Nipper Formworks, a supplier of concrete forming equipment servicing heavy concrete projects, high-rises, power plants, bridges, water treatment plants as well as industrial and institutional projects.
I will always enjoy both the physical and organizational sides of the construction industry, I have found myself taking on, and enjoying, the designing and roll out of business systems to ensure that quality products reach the end user and that the company remains viable, profitable, and the staff have the best tools with which to perform their work
